In this episode of Excess Returns, we sit down with Ben Carlson, Director of Institutional Asset Management at Ritholtz Wealth and author of the popular investing blog "A Wealth of Common Sense." We discussed his insightful article "15 Ways to Lose Money in the Markets," which outlines major mistakes investors make and how to avoid them.

We explore a variety of topics, including:
- The dangers of market timing and why it's so difficult to get right
- Why investors shouldn't blindly follow advice from billionaires or pundits
- The importance of not overreacting to short-term market volatility
- How to approach active vs. passive investing strategies
- The pitfalls of trying to get rich overnight and the value of long-term investing
- Why it's crucial to avoid selling during bear markets
- The risks of being overly pessimistic about markets and the economy
Ben provided valuable insights on each of these topics, emphasizing the importance of having a long-term perspective, avoiding big mistakes, and sticking to a well-thought-out investment plan. This conversation offers valuable lessons for investors at all levels, from beginners to seasoned professionals.
